Hi there everyone! Sorry it's been so long since my last post. We were super busy the last few weeks celebrating birthdays, getting the girls ready to start a new school year, and busy with visiting relatives from out of town. Things are finally settled and I couldn't wait to get inky! Thank goodness for Karen's Sweet Sunday Sketch, because I was certainly in need of a jump start and Karen's sketch was just the kick in the mojo that I needed!

Hi everyone! It's Release Rewind time for the My Favorite ThingsAugust Release! I love the Release Rewind because it gives me the chance to work with a set that I might not have had a chance to use during the release. If you haven't seen the new release products yet you can find them in the MFT Boutique. Make sure you head on over to the MFT Blog for a link to each participating designer.

Here's my first card. Isn't the envelope SO CUTE? I made it look like it was stuffed with hearts. I just love the sentiment. The background was stamped with the new Writing Tablet Background and the hearts were stamped with the Romantic Script Background.

I started my second card with this week's Deconstructed Sketch #164. The pink "plaid" background and pattern on the Mini Hybrid Heirloom Rose was made with the new Writing Tablet Background. I stamped it on the diagonal, rotated and stamped one more time on the diagonal. LOVE LOVE LOVE how it looks. The checkerboard on the Kraft circle was made in the same fashion with the Diagonal Stripes Background.
